Driving Tips: Snow

I travel in from Milton Keynes every day to Whetstone Audi and as you can imagine it has been a challenge with the recent weather. Here are some of the things I have been doing.

  • I put a warm coat and boots into the car. I have also made a cup of tea in one of these cups that keep it warm on your journey.
  • I check that there is enough washer fluid that does not freeze in the bottle. You will be amazed how often I use the washers with all the salt on the roads (sorry not much salt in the sides roads I know) .
  • I also make sure that all the lights are working as I am very keen to see and be seen. Put a blanket in the car in case you are held up on the major routes. I am often told take a shovel with you , but if I am stuck it is usually because everyone is stuck. Then all I want is a snow plough. Read more…

Service Plans

Service Plans

We have hundreds of customers that are already using M25 Audi Service Plans because this is the best way for them to budget for their servicing. I have asked them why service plans? The response is always the same “I know what my servicing cost will be and can mange that without the worry of where will I find it this month”. From my point of view it is great when you the customer says to me “I have got my service plan so no bill today”.

Take a look at some frequently asked questions below.

1. How much will it cost? Service plans can cost from as little as £20 per month.
 
2. Why have a service plan? Spreading the cost of your servicing like you do your gas & electric  bills every month makes it easier to maintain your car. No last minute bill for your servicing ensures you and your car are well prepared for the winter.
 
3. What are the advantages? Fixing the cost up front provided you with inflation free servicing as we agree the number of services you want to pay for when you set up the plan. That’s right, no labour rate increases for you or parts increases. You will also get 10% off accessories and

Top 5 Tips – Audi Winter Checks

Paul Lacy - Aftersales Mgr

Hi, my name is Paul Lacy and I am the new Aftersales Manager for Whetstone Audi. I have been here for ten weeks now and enjoyed meeting some of you already. Our technicians loved running the ladies night recently and my front line team enjoyed the relaxed conversations that allowed us to get to know you better.

Following on from the huge response we got from running the ladies evening I have dared to write some top tips to keep you and your car safe this winter.

We’ve given you five practical steps to take. See below.

  1. Ensure washer fluid is topped up with fluid able to withstand freezing temperatures. With autumn roads throwing up rain dirt you want to see clearly at all times. We have all experienced that lorry or bus that covers our windscreen with spray from wheels.
  2. Wipe your headlights and tails lights with a wet wipe. You’ll be surprised how much better your lights are when they are kept clean. See and be seen! Read more…
